Is Axfood financially healthy?
Mostly
Axfood would need 1.9 years of earnings to pay off its debt, which is manageable.
The numbers behind it
Net debt / EBITDA1.9 years
Cash vs. debtSEK 1.1B vs. SEK 15.4B
Current ratio0.7×Short-term assets for each SEK 1 of bills due within a year
Interest coverage6.7×How many times operating profit covers the interest bill
How we decide
We measure debt in years of earnings (net debt / EBITDA): under 1 is very comfortable, 1 to 3 is manageable, above 3 is heavy. A company that earns less than 3 times its interest bill also counts as weak.
